Here in the UK, the Grey Squirrel is a pest. They are not native to Britain, and have driven our native Red Squirrel almost to extinction. There has been a massive drive, over the past ten years or so, to re-establish the Red in certain areas, together with a parallel drive to oust the Greys by culling them. (Which, of course, is euphemistish for kill the varmints!)As to eating them, their meat is quite pleasant. A bit sweet for my taste, but not bad. The only problem is that you new quite a lot of them to feed a family of four! Next month is probably the best time to eat squirrel, as they have beenn fattening up all summer on order to survie their hibernation.
